Send reports by email

How-to

Reports open in the person's own mail app, addressed to you, with the subject and report filled in.

Steps

  1. Set the address and, if you like, the subject:
Snaglist.start({ send: { email: { to: "team@example.com", subject: "UX report" } } });

With the script tag only, use data-email="team@example.com". 2. Make a test report and select Open in email. Check the message in your mail app.

Things to note

  • The email comes from the person's own address, and 'What is sent' tells them so.
  • Mail apps take a limited amount of text from a link. Long reports are shortened and the full report is put on the clipboard, with a note in the email to paste it.
  • On a computer with no mail app set up, 'Open in email' does nothing. Keep 'Copy as Markdown' on (the default) as another way.
